Alice Tale in Phantasmagoria

Day 10 with the exception of some of the backward support, when we set out to help Wilmington.

Camping by the lake in the Duchy of Mireus, day 5.

"What's the damage?

"Squad 1, only 2 injured. Heels are enough to get you back."

"Yes, then let the 1st squad take a break for a while"

"Jesus, My, Lady"

I'm not happy to talk about it, but the war situation was on the way to intensification.

The Republic occupies a fort on the western border line, where it sends one reinforcement after another based.

If we don't dimension this somehow, Jilli is poor.

It is definitely thanks to Till that the capital city of Mireus was not occupied in the last raid.

The Wilmington Army held out thanks to a sweeping retreat of all enemy main units.

Then now I...

"Shall I kick everything..."

"Please don't, ma'am"

"That's right, Alice. Soon, you're gonna cry."

Mr. Scion, whose face was defiled with mud, returned from the battlefield.

Immediately hug and welcome in.

"Sister! Safe and above all. And then it won't snap..."

"Because we're all good. Yeah, they won't do that. And you're not convincing."

I have no majesty at all...

Again, I'm the master of the mansion.

Believe me?

"So, how was it? The front line."

Mr. Scion is the captain of Squad 1 to hide what.

Two pairs of six-man parties are combined into one platoon, bringing 15 platoons across the board.

The rest of the maid is on a backup assignment.

"The Wilmington Army fights a lot. But when the chimera comes out, it's really a hassle. The position is pushed back into that gap, and we can't get the border fort back."

I'm a hard-won chimera too, but Mr. Scion is a melee expert and the weapon he has is a specialty called Chimoto Sakura Murayun.

A few of them wouldn't be enemies.

It's not a good idea to be surrounded by a large group, but this one also covers a small number of people in conjunction with the Wilmington Army.

Our troops are responsible for the guerrilla task of intervening at their own discretion.

"After all, I guess I'll just have to detour from the mountains and raid them"

"Really..."

Even if you look at the map you spread out on the table, you can tell it's a pretty harsh terrain.

It's not a place for a lot of people to go, and if they find out, it doesn't make sense.

"Yes, Squad 3, get ready. In the meantime, do you want me to scout?

"Am...... right, it wouldn't mean enemies or alertness. Be very careful."

"Ra. Theon said," Excellent, everyone. "

At a mild rate, Ame switched out.

Now up to Squad 10, excluding the returning Squad 1, is paying for it.

Troops 11 to 15 are on standby at the position.

If we don't get some rest in due course, we won't.

"Sister, please warm your body in the bath and sleep"

"It's a luxurious battlefield to take a bath."

We have the water.

Pointing back, the vast lake of the water capital Mireus extends.

When I say position, it's a campsite, so the bath is not a drum can bath on a boulder, it's a barrel bath though.

Fire ore and other supplies will also be sent by Mr. Beltran's Chamber of Commerce as appropriate, so no problem.

The battle is about the barracks.

It involves morale.

"Thankfully. Then I'll give you a break."

"Yes, get some rest"

"Oh, don't get too carried away, Alice"

I mean, I know, but it's hard.

But...

"I know."

That's all I have to say.

If you don't hurry, it also sounds like a kingdom war situation.

I'm in a hurry, Am... don't push me.

◇ ■ ◇ ■ ◇

- side: Ame -

"Captain, there's no beast path ahead either. I was wondering if I could take all my gear with me."

"Hmm... sounds like it"

The ruggedly chopped rocky mountains had unfortunately demonstrated the magnificence of nature.

Instead of the Beast Road, it's a sudden rock climb.

I'm used to the profession of sniper, going back and forth down the road without a path, but I can't proceed without carefully selecting my luggage.

I've always been alone, and I'm not used to having people...

Damn, I did.

"As far as the map goes, if this terrain... there must be some spring water ahead... for now the food is just for a day. I can procure locally if I have to. Take the water for once. Tools for camping are good for half the time now"

"Got it!

A maid child entrusted with the deputy captain goes with instructions to Tekipaki and the whole thing.

This kid is on a boulder, a solid kid.

It seems better for the captain than it is for me.

Honestly, it helps.

... Poor mouth, dah.

At the end of the day, I look ahead with a thousand eyes.

As far as I can see, no surprises.

No problem.

Just check the route and the situation and turn back.

Easy.

In my head, imagine the process… take a deep breath.

My body is heavy enough to wonder if the big dragon is even on my shoulder.

None of the children in this unit are the same age as their masters.

Temporarily, though, the fate of these children depends on me.

"I don't like this..."

Reminds me of the children of the church.

Those kids are good now because Lana is watching me...

"This is how many times the weight the master always holds…"

Master, I knew it was amazing.

When I get home, I'll rub it on your shoulder, too.

I don't know what the master is, so... if you feel weird, let's just keep pushing him down.

"Captain, we're ready!

"Well, let's go then... be very careful"

"Ha!"

I turned my back on the vice captain, who saluted me well, and laid my hands on the rocky mountains...

◇ ■ ◇ ■ ◇

- Fine, tight.

I broke through the rocky mountains, went down the beast path, and when the sun came down, I realized once again.

I was meant to be acting alone at some point.

I guess I was tired and I wasn't turning my head.

I stopped my leg and turned around.

"... I'm sorry, I can't, let you?

"Ahhh... Yikes! That's not true!

The deputy captain's son shook his head in a panic with his hazy eyes.

In the meantime, I'm horrified that all the troops are following me.

"It's already sunset, the mountain sunset is early, so let's camp here"

"Copy that! Everybody ready for camp."

They've all just come so quietly, and I can tell they're a pretty well-trained bunch.

The Master's Mansion child is truly all a thousand.

This deputy captain's kid is stronger than that idiot demon, isn't he?

"Hey."

"Ah, yes, Captain."

I get in the way of giving camp instructions, but my interest boils down.

The deputy captain's kid stopped by for a little run.

"The Beast Clan, right?

Dog-like ears, jumped.

"Yes, as you can see..."

Answer with a dark face if you are ashamed somewhere.

"Because it's me, Dwarf. I'm not prejudiced like a stupid human being."

"Ah, no, ah, yes..."

Now I'm ashamed of what I put into my attitude.

The kid at the master's, he's really serious.

"Do you like it?

"Ha! The lady, she looks like a goddess! Beautiful, strong, gentle! I am always grateful for the good fortune of meeting my lady! You got me engaged, even to Lady Kranseska!

The more you ride yourself out, the more enthusiasm you convey.

I will - sin as usual.

"Well, I will - wouldn't the SS have been better?

"That's it! It's an honor to be in the unit with Captain Ame! Besides, the lady's SS is too strong for me... the captain is a maid of honor."

Oh, my ears drooped.

Sure, I will - on top of being too strong myself, I'll say, eleven of the finest in the mansion, so that's about all I can steal from the country.

"Oh, but all of a sudden I'm after the lady's SS, too, right? Eleven of the SS are famous among us for their Eleven Sisters!

"Heh? Who chooses?

"... I'm the maid length"

Oh, my ears drooped.

"Yikes, scared?

"No, no, no! No!?"

Shaking your head is funny.

"Oh, uh, hey, I'm scared"

It's a secret story, it's adorable to talk like it's illuminated.

"But everyone also respects the maid chief. There's too many gaps, it's hard. In front of you, you stretch your spine on your own."

"Heh, I thought you were just a stalker of your choice."

"What, Captain Ame!?

"Joke, um, please set up. Me, I'm just gonna look ahead."

"Oh, yes! Um, then I will!

"Fine, because it's easier to move it physically."

"Got it!

Salute well.

I will - the kid at the place, really...

Yeah, guys, I need to give it back to you.

I just found a place that looks great, so I'll just move on.

If we cross this mountain, we're going to be able to hit the side of the fort successfully.

Thousands of eyes, looking far away.

"- Wait, wait, wait, wait."

To the boulder, this is... a bad joke.

Even my normal mind held my breath...

◇ ■ ◇ ■ ◇

- side: Alice -

"What the hell! 100 dragons, are you there?!?

I can't hide my surprise from Amy.

'Mmm... red, but blue, and earthy? Anyway, a lot. I think I can still get into an avalanche. "

Is that a summons?

Like Fleuretti, you're using it unscrupulously!?

"Ilia, the Dragons are quite populous...?

"I don't know all the settlements, but there won't be 1,000 or 2,000."

To that extent, it would be an endangered designation.

Do you normally have 10,000 units?

That makes no difference to rare species.

I'm unscrupulous...!

Chimera is troublesome too, but the dragon will still be stronger than that.

"When that comes, I honestly think the Wilmington Army will be devastated"

"I..."

'Mm, I'll take care of this place. Stay close to the fort and break down a small cliff-width spot to block the road. I don't have a flying type, so I think I can handle it. "

"Please don't be stupid! I thought you said your mission was reconnaissance! That close, it's too dangerous!

'... yeah, I know. Even I want everyone back safe. But if we don't do it here, we won't make it. More people, they're gonna die. I don't like it anymore. Because I've taken my life lightly, I...'

As painful as it hurts, Ame's determination is conveyed.

But the chills won't stop either.

I don't want to say anything that's not even close.

"Ame, how are you going to break the cliff......?

"I've brought enough fire ore to throw stones. If you set it up and blow it up all at once, you should be able to go '

"If you fail...... what do you do?

"At first sight, run away. Leave it to me, run away, because I'm good at it. '

- Assassins of cowards, huh?

You can't die because you have something to protect, Am I...?

View Ilia.

"... Amy is right, we may be able to stop the massive damage by trying here. I was wondering if it would be worth hanging up in case of a moment of contention."

…………

"Ok...... please, Ame"

"I'll take care of it."

"Am!"

'Hmm?'

My chest hurts...

I'm not the one who brought you here.

"Don't die."

Are you worried about me?

"Surprisingly..."

'Lana will piss you off. But I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna...

Amy keeps everyone in the squad.

Please do me a favor.

I don't want anyone to die...

"I'm coming."

"Please, I will!

"N"

Somehow, a thumbs-up Ame appeared.

◇ ■ ◇ ■ ◇

Finish the call and turn your attention to all the troops.

"Everybody here..."

"It can't be! You can't just let the captain do such a dangerous assignment and congratulate you on going home!

Everyone had the eyes of a firm resolve.

Oh my God... you're an idiot, myself.

Really, I'm not the only one anymore...

"... I'll tell you what, I can't get any support from any unit closer to the enemy than any unit I'm fighting right now. If you fail..."

I swallowed words.

"That's an S-rank assignment! We did it, guys! If we succeed in this, we are the Eleven Sisters!

Yeah, yeah, everyone was laughing.

Soon, my chest was tightened.

I give it back, these kids, absolutely, no matter what...

"Mm, help me. Protect everyone. Because life is not light."

There's no such thing as a good life to drop easily.

I'm the one who has to prove it.

"Got it, Captain Ame! Bottom line of Squad 3, let me show you!

"Mmm!"

We don't have time.

The break was there too, and the camp remained tense, leaving the spot behind.

- Lana, I'm sure I'll protect you!
